Dell PowerEdge 2950: System event log (SEL) is full
On an old Dell 2950 I noticed "I1912 SEL Full" on display. OS is 2008 R2 Standard
Through OpenManage (Hardware > Logs), the message is:
Wed Mar 02 12:33:26 2016 System event log (SEL) is full.
2 question:
1) the only way to clear event log is through BMC menu (reboot required), according to this URL?

2) few days ago I registered a disk hardware failure. I configured alert with "DellSMTPNotify" application.
Is it possible to I didn't receive an email for that failure, due to Event Log full?
Thankyou very much

Hi, DellSMTPNotify.exe 1 worked fine.
I hope I will receive further alert in the future, after clearing log.
Thank you!
